HIGHLINE RxR

<a href="https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Profs and Pints Northern Virginia</a> presents: “Encountering Cryptids,” on
 the cultural, historical and psychological significance of beings that 
may exist only in lore, with Joshua Barton, lecturer in English at 
Virginia Commonwealth University and scholar of horror.
Some started out as anecdotes shared by explorers. Others were 
created as cautionary tales, or literally were just developed as spooky 
stories for kids. Regardless of their origins, they’re now entrenched 
inhabitants of our nation’s landscapes, their lives perpetuated through 
tales told by communities that believe they’re real.
They’re cryptids with names like Sasquatch, Mothman, the Jersey 
Devil, Ogopogo, the Flatwoods Monster, and the Beast of Bray Road. And 
your single best chance to get to know them might be by coming to this 
talk by Joshua Barton, a scholar of horror who has earned a loyal 
following among Profs and Pints fans with incredibly entertaining past 
talks on folklore and horror.
He'll look at the genesis of the tales themselves and what they tell 
us about historic approaches to the unknown. He’ll discuss how tales of 
cryptids reflect societal fears, inspire local legends, and connect 
communities through shared myths, and he’ll examine the impact of 
cryptid tales on modern storytelling and local tourism.
Turning his attention to specific cryptids, Barton will describe how 
the Jersey Devil speaks to our nation’s puritan roots and our collective
 fear of evil. The chupacabra reflects anxieties over the blending of 
cultures, while Bigfoot and Mothman stand out as huge generators of 
tourism revenue.
You’ll learn how the study of such creatures—cryptozoology—exists at 
the intersection of oral folklore and modern belief, and you’ll probably
 emerge from the talk eager to tell cryptid tales of your own. (<a href="https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-encountering-cryptids" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Advance tickets</a>: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Doors: $17, or $15 
with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes 
later.)
Image: An 1889 Garrick Mallery sketch of a painted rock encountered 
on the Tule River Reservation in California. Cryptozoologists have 
interpreted the three figures painted on it, generally regarded as 
Native American symbols for negation, as instead representing an entire 
Sasquatch family.

Penn Social

<a href="https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Profs and Pints DC</a> presents: “Painting’s Pioneering Women,”
 on female artists who overcame barriers and changed their field, with 
Paloma Vianey, lecturer in George Washington University’s Corcoran 
School of the Arts and Design.
Introductory art history courses tend to give short shrift to women, a
 legacy of the many centuries in which art collections 
disproportionately featured the works of men.
As a studio arts teacher, acclaimed interdisciplinary artist Paloma 
Vianey has sought to remedy that imbalance, teaching students about the 
lives and work of inspiring women artists while also encouraging them to
 observe artwork from the painters’ perspectives.
Join Vianey at Washington D.C.’s Penn Social for a look at the 
struggles and cultural contributions of women artists and how they have 
used painting as a tool for expression and healing.
She’ll discuss why learning about the contributions of women is 
imperative to understanding the field of painting and movements such as 
impressionism, surrealism, and conceptual art. She’ll dive into the 
lives and works of fifteen female artists who have had a huge impact in 
the last four centuries, describing how they created their images and 
changed their field.
Among the women you’ll learn about: Aurora Reyes, a poet regarded as 
the first Mexican muralist, who drew upon her impoverished upbringing to
 give her murals authenticity. Clara Peeters, a seventeenth-century 
artist who came to be regarded as a master in the nearly all-male field 
of still-life painting and took the brave step of incorporating 
self-portraits into her depictions of vases, goblets, and food. Emily 
Carr, who eschewed the traditional life she’d been expected to lead in 
the Victorian era to instead spend her life single and using painting to
 document the lives of Aboriginal villages.
Other artists who will be covered in the talk include surrealist 
Remedios Varo, conceptual artist Agnes Martin, modern artist Hilma af 
Klint, and Native American collage artist Jaune Quick-to-See Smith.
You’ll learn how the field of Art History is being revised to give 
female artists their due and how contemporary art museums are 
emphasizing more of their work. (<a href="https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-painting-women" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Advance tickets</a>: $13.50 plus sales tax

<a href="https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Profs and Pints DC</a> presents: “Becoming a Better Ally,”
 on research-backed ways to effectively advocate for marginalized 
populations, with Hannah Snidman, assistant professor of psychology at 
Marymount University and director of a Marymount lab focused on 
allyship, social justice, activism, gender, and equity.
Marginalized groups are under extreme pressure in today’s political 
climate, yet some who seek to come to their defense may unintentionally 
be causing further harm.
Learn how you can become a better ally to those who face oppression 
due to gender, race, ethnicity, or other factors with Hannah Snidman, a 
psychologist whose research focuses on allyship and the experiences of 
gender minority members.
Professor Snidman will give her audience a basic understanding of 
Minority Stress Theory, which explains how unique stressors experienced 
by members of marginalized groups often lead to disparities in areas 
such as mental and physical health, substance use, and healthcare 
utilization.&nbsp;
She’ll discuss research on how effective allyship can reduce 
prejudice toward marginalized people and serve as a buffer against the 
stresses it causes. Focusing especially on the transgender population, 
she’ll describe research showing how would-be allies can unintentionally
 cause harm by, for example, invalidating perspectives or failing to 
follow through on promises.
The talk will look at future directions in allyship research, 
including on best practices for helping immigrant communities. (<a href="https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-better-ally" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Advance tickets</a>: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Doors: $17, or $15
